I've found myself more interested in Stripe's UI/UX than the product itself.

Not that the product isn't anything less than mint, it's just that their front-end developers are so amazing.

Yes, it's beautiful. However, looks like there's no form validation on the email submit. I just submitted "r" as an email address.

Not sure why you're getting downvotes, for such a slick page basic email address form validation is an odd omission.

As long as you can receive a confirmation email, any address could work :)

But basic \S+@\S+ check on the UI side won't hurt and would be courteous.

But what if I worked at stripe and only wanted to type my username? :D

On this form it's less relevant, but that's very handy a lot of the time. I get frustrated when some outsourced app seems to believe that just sending mail to my username would not work, and refuses to let me do it.

Strange, its still working as you mentioned earlier. What a weird bug to leave out in the open like that.

And I'm SO thankful for this. It really makes selling a client on the service much easier, since many of them seem to only care about fancy spash pages...

The form highlight animation is sexy!

It's from Google's Polymer project https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/

That's the ripple animation from Material Design[1]--it looks good on an product page for Android.

I've noticed that on their last few announcements. Their landing pages for announcements have been top notch.

I agree. How do you learn to become such a great front-end developer?
